Biography
Centre half Wolfe was at City for the 1904/05 season that was precursor to the club joining the Football League in September 1905. Wolfe played in both of City’s FA Cup ties against Stockton in September 1904. He also started 26 friendly matches during that inaugural season.
While absolute certainty has been elusive, we are 95% sure that Wolfe was born in West Ham in 1883. More certain is that he played for Everton and Colne in 1903/04 prior to joining the Tigers, and moved to Chelsea in 1905 where he made just one appearance. He died in Epping, suburban East London, in 1968.
